1 Premier ousted: Libya's parliament ousted the prime minister in a Tuesday vote of confidence, a move prompted by a crisis this week when a militia controlling an eastern port defied Tripoli's authority by trying to sell oil. The chamber named Defense Minister Abdullah al-Thinni as interim prime minister until a replacement for Ali Zidan is found.

2 Rendition convictions: Italy's highest court upheld guilty verdicts Tuesday against the final three U.S. defendants in the 2003 extraordinary rendition kidnapping of an Egyptian terror suspect. The decision, after a series of trials spanning 6 1/2 years, brought to a close the only prosecution to date against the Bush administration's practice of abducting terror suspects and moving them to third countries that permitted torture. The court upheld guilty verdicts and confirmed the seven-year sentence against the CIA's former Rome station chief Jeff Castelli and six-year sentence against two others identified as CIA agents.

3 Rebel attack: Indian Maoist rebels ambushed paramilitary soldiers in a brazen daytime attack Tuesday, killing 20 at a camp in a remote central forest. The soldiers had been guarding road construction workers in the south of Chhattisgarh state when about 200 rebels opened fire, police said. The rebels have been fighting for more than three decades, staging hit-and-run attacks against Indian authorities as they demand a greater share of wealth from the area's natural resources and more jobs for farmers and the poor.

4 Factory inspections: Inspections of Bangladesh garment factories under a new safety initiative have found cracked support beams, extra floors apparently built without permits and exposed electrical cables chewed by rats. Overly heavy structures on roofs, substandard building materials and even an unauthorized helicopter pad were also among the problems revealed in the first round of inspection reports released Tuesday. The inspections are being funded by a group of mostly European fashion brands in the aftermath of the Rana Plaza factory collapse that killed more than 1,100 people in April last year.

5 Israeli regret: Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday expressed sorrow over the fatal shooting of a Jordanian judge and announced a joint investigation into the incident, seeking to ease tensions with its key Arab ally. The death of Raed Zueter, a Jordanian magistrate of Palestinian descent, has caused an uproar in Jordan. The Israeli military said that guards shot Zueter on Monday after he tried to grab a rifle from a soldier at the border crossing between the West Bank and Jordan.

6 Turkish unrest: Turkish police clashed with thousands of protesters Tuesday in at least 11 cities following the death of a teenager who had been in a coma since being hit by a tear-gas canister during antigovernment protests last year. Riot police fired tear gas, water cannons and rubber bullets Tuesday to disperse protesters hurling stones and bottles in Ankara, the capital, and Istanbul, the largest city. The demonstrations started out as a local protest May 31 against government plans to turn an Istanbul park into a shopping mall. After police used force, protests spread nationwide, with demonstrators denouncing Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's increasingly authoritarian style and demanding greater democratic freedom.
